Give Kids Bikes, and hit up the Grammy's

Non-prof, Bikes for Kids Utah, puts two tix to the Grammy's (including the after party) on auction at their charity dinner at the end of the month. Music's biggest night happens Feb. 13, so you'll have plenty of time to save up for the trip to L.A.

Rumors is Rihanna will perform live at the show and winners are being predicted.

The organization plans to give away 1,000 bikes in 2011 to underprivileged kids in the Salt Lake valley, and the dinner generates momentum for the effort. "Our dinner's new location, Tuscan ambiance and high-caliber auction items will make this event a really exciting," says Bikes for Kids executive director Debbie Reid.

Other items for auction include two tix to Dancing with the Stars, including a meeting with the cast; week-long sty at a villa in Tuscany, Italy; Trip for four to the Virgin Islands; Amazon Cruise for two through Peru; Group vacation to Spice Island, Grenada and dozens of holiday gift baskets.

Last year, the dinner and auction raised nearly $17,000, and this year they are hoping to beat it. They just might, if I'm able to save enough in time to enter the Grammy auction. Bid high, eliminate the competition early.
